Riloff, Ellen M. | Empirical study of automated dictionary construction for information extraction in three domains | A primary goal of natural language processing researchers is to develop a knowledge-based natural language processing (NLP) system that is portable across domains. However, most knowledge-based NLP systems rely on a domain-specific dictionary of concepts, which represents a substantial knowledge-en... | Information extraction; AutoSlog; Across domains | 1996 |

Furse, Cynthia M. | Capacitance and inductance sensor circuits for detecting the lengths of open- and short-circuited wires | The length of an open- or short-circuited wire is linearly proportional to the capacitance or inductance of the wire, respectively. Several types of simple and inexpensive circuits are introduced to measure these values. Open-circuited (capacitance) measurements are very effective. Short-circuited ... | Aging aircraft wire; Capacitance sensors; Fault detection; Inductance sensors | 2009-08 |
